Full-Text
Three samples of dental calculus were removed from three separate individuals in Idaho. Samples from sites 10PE20 and 10OE5968 represent two prehistoric individuals who lived approximately 1000 years ago. The third sample, excavated at Fort Boise, represents an individual that was buried between 1864 and 1889. In addition to identifying the contents of these three calculus samples, a comparison is made between the two prehistoric and single historic records.
